This Is a very narrow margin. The late
decision OF the Supreme Court OF the
United States has shown that next year we
shall at least lose the orummers' ncense-tax,
which, l learn, is $4,000. Suppose that
we sball collect from all other sources as
much money as we did last year. and spend
10 more; then, deducting this sum, we
have a deficit Of s4S,59S. And what are

that there is any possibility Of an extra
session OF Congress nov. The prevalent
impression, as gathered by Star reporter
from conversation with members OF Con-
gyess, is that the Fii.isth Congress
will be called together in the
fall, perhaps in October, in or
der that soma OF the important legisla-
ton to come before it may be matured
early. It is we'll known fact that Con-
gresa scarcely idoss any business until
after the holiday recess. In view Of the
fact tina. the questions OF revenue and
taxation, OF Notifications ans other great
public interests must receive attention at
the next seasion, it 10 thought that the
President will call session to begin in the
fall, and that it will run along into the
summer session.
Mr.. O'Neil, chairman Of the House La
Dor Committee, said to-day thGt he wss
dissatisfied with the result OF the sessions
work. "As 8 result OF two years hard
work We have practically accomplished
nothing Of value in the interest OF labor.
The two important bills that We were
working Oh, that to prohibit the importa-
ton Of alien contract labor and tho labor
arbitration bill, which got through both
House, have failed Of the signature Of the
President. I don't know whether thoy
Rot to him in tins or not, but certainly
they are lost"
